The Practice — 01

A studio of
two decades.

— Founded by Jerry Thomas, 2002

Architecture as discipline.

T&T Design & Development has been registered as an active Florida corporation since 29 April 2002 — more than two decades of commercial, industrial, and mixed-use work delivered across Broward County.

We work closely with our clients and take on a small number of projects each year. Most of our work comes from referrals — from developers, owners, general contractors, and municipalities we have worked with for years. Our signature project, the 75,000 square-foot Flora Fine Foods headquarters, opened in 2021 in partnership with Butters Construction.

Each engagement is led by a principal, not handed off. The drawings should come from the people doing the work, and the buildings should come from the drawings.

Flora Fine Foods HQ

Three distinct programs under one roof — corporate headquarters, full distribution operation, and a public-facing Italian marketplace. Each required its own circulation, security, and material palette, coordinated within a single envelope.

Delivered in design-build collaboration with Butters Construction, a partnership spanning multiple projects along the Sample Road corridor.
